A Constant State of Flux
05:02

I finished reading the book
That you had recommended
I wonder what I should do
Now that it has ended
Is there something more I could say
With another night descended
I'll start another story
But can this one be mended
Chorus 1:
Is this detour
Just coming to the crux
No lose or win
Just a constant state of flux
Another year has passed
And we are growing older
It's the same as it has been
No warmer and no colder
How could it go for this long
Still feels like a placeholder
How much longer will this be
Of us who is the bolder
Chorus 2::
You'll find your way
Just don't push all your luck
For what is life
Just a constant state of flux
The future's in your eyes
Though it's hard not to be wary
We come together naked
Oh with everything we've carried
How will we look back on this
Will the past stay buried
How I wish it could be now
God I wish you weren't married
Chorus 2
Chorus 3:
Not gonna lie
Sometimes it really sucks
Hearts break and mend
In this constant state of flux

Better Than I Was

I hope I am better
Than I used to be
I hope down the line
There's a better version of me
I hope I do more
Than the least I can do
Regret for how I was
I hope I don't hurt you
I want to be better than I was
I want to be better than I was
I hope you are treated
The way that you deserve
I hope these sweet nothings
Are meant with every word
I hope for a brighter future
Where we don't run away
I hope for growth together
Rather than slow decay
I want to be better than I was
I want to be better than I was
I hope I am as good
As I'm always told
I hope that if the fire dies
I won't get fully cold
I hope when the time comes
I'll be smart enough to know
I don't have to hang on
I don't have to let go
I want to be better than I was
I want to be better than I was
I want to be better than I was
I want to be better than I am

Homewrecker Blues

For better and for worse
I get what I deserve
Nothing less and nothing more
Than what I have earned
I won't take the lower road
I won't be the lesser man
But every time I look at you
I wonder if I can
Chorus:
What happened to
The way we were
She is still here
I'm looking right at her
There is still hope
For things to get better
In a broken home
Am I the wrecker
How many have I loved
Can you quantify that feel
When I'm caught up in oounting
Do I miss what could be real
Love keeps its splendor
Even when it corrodes
How could everything I love
Be in binary code
Chorus

Do you wish to forget
Who you are and who you've been
Thinking about moving on
Pondering the where and when
Whose name does your heart call
In case you're on their mind
Who will be the last
The silence swells behind
Changing your behavior
Is the best apology
Who you were before
Isn't who you'll always be
Forgiveness isn't easy
It won't always be earned
Just know that some bridges
Are meant to stay burned
So which one will you choose
To forgive or to forget
Perhaps you've already chosen
And I just don't know it yet
Just tell me that you loved me
It doesn't have to be true
Cause maybe I'll believe me
After hearing it first from you

Break Down The Door
05:54

When I look up at a cloudy sky
Does someone look down on me
If I want to take a look at myself
Whose eyes must I see
When someone reaches out to me
Is there a reason why
I need to know if the air is thin
Do I climb a Mountain of Lies
When everyone all smiles at me
With hands to extend
Which ones are safe and which are not
Do I turn my back on a friend
Am I afraid to deal the deck
For the pain that I do know
Am I afraid of the future
And the things that it could show
Another day a new challenge
Another test to go through
The wars in my head are raging again
Which side do I listen to
Am I another number
With the tasks to fulfill
There is someone who controls my life
A stranger to me free will
There's a reason I remember
That savage defeat
For if we choose to forget the fights
The history will only repeat
I've been so long on the outside
I see what I'm looking for
So here I stand no key in hand
I must break down the door
So here I stand no key in hand
I must break down the door
So here I stand no key in hand
I must break down the door
